Every city has it's story so Oradea's fortress story is long and dated from the time that our oldest generation were defeating by the turkey army so they've build a big fortress in their defense. Nowadays the fortress has been renewed and you can find within it's walls some coffe shops, restaurants and wine tasteing places.
